Some pictures from Carillon Park

Carillon Park is pretty cool. Sure, they have a 1905 airplane and such, but I go for the trains!

They have an 1835 steam locomotive. A 190X Barney & Smith coach-observation car, a B&S interurban, and open trolley (B&S???), a Lima fireless cooker, a 30" gauge Porter, a B&O caboose, and a 1/8th scale railroad.

This weekend, they had a train show...which surprised me. I didn't take photos of any of the layouts, directly, as I was short on time and I prefer 1:1 trains to model trains.

Here are a few photos:

The 1835 Grasshopper. She is not a replica...she is a genuine 174 year old steam locomotive.
